Mrs. Dinah Corkern

Hello and welcome to my classroom at Fifth Ward Junior High School. This is my 26th year of teaching and my 21st year at Fifth Ward Junior HIgh. I have been very fortunate to teach lower elemetnary Mild/Moderate Special Education since arriving at Fifth Ward. I love teaching and I especially love seeing the progress my students make each year.

I graduated from Southeastern Louisiana University in 1992 with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. Later, I earned my Master's degree in Special Education. I continue to attend professional development opportunities in order to stay up to date with new information.

I look forward to a wonderful year where my students will be Shooting for the Stars!
